Apple Spur members celebrate year

- LILYAN LUBBESS Special to The TIMES

Apple Spur is a 4-H group that meets the second Monday of every month at the Pea Ridge Heritage Building. Apple Spur members participat­e in a variety of competitio­ns, including the Benton County Fair. Members also do community service, such as trash cleanups, Food Pantry donations, Ronald McDonald House donations, and Salvation Army Red Kettle Bell Ringing at Christmas time.

Every year, the leaders of Apple Spur take the members out for a yearly trip. This year, members chose to go to Fast Lanes in Rogers. The members were granted a $20 fun card. They were also awarded a ginormous pizza, a game of bowling, and a round of laser tag. This yearly adventure is something the members look forward to all year along.
